A.P.
I just did a Yahoo search for "shelf stable soy products". There seems to be a soy pudding that does not need refrigeration. I realize it is not as healthy and may have more sugar than the yogurt but it will give her the dairy she needs and you can travel with it or ship it. Maybe the nutritionist can help out with some ideas. Does she eat beans and broccoli? That and a fortified OJ may carry her dairy nutritionally but if she eats 3 yogurts a day, a month may be a long time to go without her creature comforts. Even traveling within the US my 5 year old was disappointed that the same foods tasted or were made differently. Did you try a couple of different recipes for the homemade yogurt? I found a few and from a quick read it seems that temperature and incubation time are pretty key in taste and consistency. If the pudding doesnt work out, I think its worth another try at making the yogurt. Good luck!
